Best Grass Types for Fort Collins
Fort Collins experiences low precipitation and a semi-arid climate: summers are hot and dry, rainfall is infrequent, and winters are snowy. Cool-season grasses keep up well with Northern Coloradoβs conditions, but some homeowners incorporate warm-season varieties for a year-round green lawn.
- Kentucky Bluegrass: This cool-season variety is self-repairing and develops a lush, fine-textured lawn. It performs well in Fort Collinsβs cold winters and survives drought thanks to deep roots.
- Fescue Blends: Cool-season tall and fine fescues are adapted to cool climates. Varieties like creeping red fescue have fine blades and good shade tolerance. Theyβre often mixed with other grass types to create diverse lawns.
- Buffalograss: Buffalograss is a warm-season, drought-tolerant grass. It needs less water to thrive, though it will go dormant in the winter.
How Often Should You Mow Your Lawn? Mow cool-season grasses every 10 to 14 days during the spring and fall. For Buffalograss, mow every seven to 14 days during the summer and reduce the frequency to every 14 to 21 days in cooler months.
Common Lawn Pests and Diseases in Fort Collins
Fort Collins lawns get their fair share of pests and diseases, no matter how cold it gets. They include:
- Leaf Lovers: Beware of sod webworms and armyworms that love to feast on grass blades, leading to lawn thinning and bare patches.
- Sap-Sucking Pests: Aphids and chinch bugs feed on grass sap and cause brown or yellow patches. Theyβre most active during dry and warm conditions.
- Root-Eating Pests: White grubs love to feed on grassroots and leave brown patches.
- Fungal Diseases: Dollar spot and brown patch appear as circular patches of dead or brown grass and spread quickly.
